Apophyllite, Blue Chalcedony, Hematite Raw Cluster | 1221

Apophyllite, also known as "Fish-Eye Stone," is best known for its pearly, translucent luster and its ability to enhance spiritual connection and clarity.

Apophyllite forms in volcanic regions as hydrothermal fluids rich in silica seep into cavities within basalt rocks, where it crystallizes over time. Apophyllite's creation involves the cooling and evaporation of mineral-rich water, which leaves behind its distinctive crystalline formations.

Apophyllite's structure is characterized by its tetragonal crystal system, often forming pyramid-like shapes or thin plates.

Apophyllite is commonly found in India, Brazil, and certain regions of Iceland and the United States.

Blue Chalcedony, also known as "Blue Lace Agate," is best known for its soothing blue hues and calming energy.

Blue Chalcedony is created as silica-rich solutions seep into cavities within volcanic rocks, solidifying over time through the slow deposition of microcrystalline quartz. Blue Chalcedony's characteristic color often develops due to trace amounts of minerals like copper or manganese.

Blue Chalcedony's structure is composed of densely packed microcrystalline quartz fibers, giving it a smooth, waxy luster.

Blue Chalcedony is commonly found in regions such as Namibia, Turkey, and the western United States.

Hematite, also known as "Iron Rose," is best known for its metallic luster and high iron content.

Hematite forms through the precipitation of iron-rich minerals from water, typically in environments like hot springs, lakes, or deep underground where oxidation occurs. Hematite can also develop as a result of volcanic activity and the cooling of magma rich in iron oxides.

Hematite's structure consists of iron oxide (Fe₂O₃) arranged in a hexagonal crystal system, often resulting in a metallic or earthy appearance.

Hematite is commonly found in Brazil, Australia, the United States, and China, particularly in areas rich in iron deposits.
